Israel Adesanya has a fight to sell. The interim middleweight champion is getting ready for his bout against title holder Robert Whittaker in Melbourne, Australia on October 6th, where the two belts will hopefully be unified. Whittaker, known as much for his low profile out of the cage as his violence inside of it, will be fighting for the first time in 2019, having suffered a series of unusual injuries—including a twisted and collapsed bowel, and an abdominal hernia.
With an opponent of few words in front of him, it looks like Adesanya is happy to take on the brunt of the promotional work, letting his confidence shine in a recent interview with Submission Radio.
